Introduction:
With a unique & subtle Southern Cross design, this canvas and leather duffel is both incredibly practical and symbolic of safari adventure. Build your bag with zip-off stand-alone safari satchels and backpacks.

The Mara&Meru™ Safari Voyager has long been a favourite of safari travellers to Africa. With its detachable, interchangeable end pockets which are stand-alone small satchels and backpacks, it is the ultimate travel bag. In classic safari-grade canvas and leather, this duffel allows you to create the bag you need for safari, business trips, or weekends away.

The compound design allows you to pack your clothes into the core bag and zip off the side pockets which are handy daypacks. The core bag can stay at the lodge or at your hotel, while the detachable sides can be taken along for activities. In core mode, it is the perfect size for short journeys, weekends away, or as hand luggage. The core bag comes standard with two small side pockets that attach to the core bag with zips. These can be removed and used independently as satchels and come with detachable shoulder straps.

We also stock a range of attachments that zip to the Mara&Meru™ Southern Cross Safari Voyager so you can customise your bag with ease. With the complete Mara&Meru™ set of bags, you will never need another bag again! The ability to add or remove attachments to create the individual bag of your choosing means that your Safari Voyager is wholly adaptable to meet your needs.

Other attachments available for the Mara&Meru™ Southern Cross Safari Voyager:
- 3-in-1 Pocket/Satchel/DayPack (Adjustable depth)
- 4-in-1 Pocket/CameraBag/Satchel/Daypack

Please note that there is a slight difference in colour between Khaki Tan and Safari Tan when ordering attachments

This bag also features full leather handles and a new reinforced base for strength.

The special meaning behind the Southern Cross design
Gazing at the Southern Cross makes a mark on everyone who sees it in the Southern African night sky. Whether paying homage to past African travels or in anticipation of your first safari, the Mara&Meru™ Southern Cross Safari Voyager is the perfect bag. With a subtle Southern Cross design in antique brass studs at the base of the handles, celebrate African travels with the constellation that has been used for navigation and held special importance in the lives of different cultures across Africa for centuries. You’ll never forget your first glimpse of this novel sight in the night sky on safari with this limited-edition bag.

A note about luggage handlers, ground staff, and canvas and leather luggage: We stand by the quality of the construction of our canvas and leather range and the quality of the safari-grade canvas and leather we use to make our bags. We have also expedition tested all of our canvas and leather luggage so that we know just how tough it is. Canvas and leather are, however fabrics and, as with all fabrics, they have their limitations. While cases are few and far between and we have not experienced puncturing on our own safaris and expeditions, fabric, by its very nature, is able to puncture or tear if subjected to force, sharp objects, if thrown along an abrasive surface, or other forms of harsh handling. We urge any clients who have their luggage damaged by luggage handlers & ground staff to contact us for a quote to submit to their travel insurance to make a claim.


Kindly note that we do not have a professional repair service. We will try and assist in any way we can but, in the event of your bag being damaged on your travels, please submit a claim to your travel insurance.



Say no to plastic packaging
Your Mara&Meru™ luggage is packaged in a re-usable canvas drawstring bag. At The Safari Store, we are working hard to eliminate plastic from all of our packaging. This forms part of our commitment to a green future and the preservation of the environment, so future generations can enjoy pristine natural spaces.



⊙ MATERIAL: These bags are beautifully crafted from quality safari-grade canvas and leather. A padded, environmentally-friendly layer weatherproofs the bag and helps to keep the contents of the bag dry in light rain showers. It also has a reinforced base for extra strength.
⊙ DETAIL: Brass buckles and studs offer durability and aesthetic detail to the overall look of the bag. The Southern Cross is subtly depicted in studs at the base of the handles. The stitching is strong, neat, and complements the curves of the bag.
⊙ STRAPS: This bag has full-leather handles and the shoulder strap is made from thick woven canvas with a padded leather pad for comfortable carrying.
⊙ ZIPS: The durable zips have leather tags to make zipping and unzipping easy on the hands. The main compartments have lockable zips that allow a padlock to be fed through to keep the contents of your bag safe.

Product Notes:

• We strongly suggest you lock each attachment onto the main bag by inserting a lock through the joining zips.
• The Mara&Meru™ Southern Cross Safari Voyager comes standard with two detachable end pockets. The other attachments are sold separately.
• When shopping our range of zip-on side pockets, please note that there is a slight difference in colour between Khaki Tan and Safari Tan products.
